Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Determine the combustible characteristics of the material and extent of explosion hazard
  • Knowledge of the factors considered in classification of combustible dust atmospheres is applied
       
Element: Consideration is given to reducing the extent of explosion hazards by the application of hierarchy of risk controls
       
Element: Dust combustibility is determined in consultation with process specialists and relevant sources of information and, where applicable, obtaining confirmation by commissioning laboratory tests
       
Element: Material characteristics such as particle size, moisture content, cloud and layer minimum ignition temperature and electrical resistivity, are obtained from process specialists and relevant sources of information and, where applicable, laboratory tests
       
Element: Dust containment and sources of release, including likely formation of dust layers are identified from process personnel with operational and maintenance experience
       
Element: The probability that dust will be released and form an explosive dust atmosphere in an installation is determined from possible causes and characteristics of release taking into account ventilation and dust extraction
       
Element: Assign the type and extent of zones
  • Sources and grades of release and dust deposits in layering that may occur in the area are established from collected data and consultation with process specialists
       
Element: Area classification zones are attributed according to the frequency and duration of the occurrence of explosive dust atmospheres
       
Element: The extent of each zone is determined in accordance with the relevant standard and in consideration of examples of locations that may give rise to a zone
       
Element: The nature of housekeeping is taken into account
       
Element: Document classification and delineation of zones
  • Area classification processes and procedures are documented as required by the relevant standards including the level of housekeeping on which the classification is based
       
Element: Classification documentation records are provided for future reference and for incorporation in the verification dossier

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
